grossed $42.868 M in five days, which is on the low end of expectations. Alien: Covenant is running an underwhelming 30.0 percent behind the $61.257 M five-day start of 2012’s Prometheus and 14.0 percent behind
the $49.867 M five-day take of last year’s Independence Day: Resurgence.

2014’s If I Stay.
